A cookie is a small text file stored by your browser when you visit a website. Cookies let a site remember things between page loads (e.g., that you’re signed in) and, depending on the cookie, can also be used to measure traffic or to power advertising.
We try to use as few cookies as we can, and the ones we do use serve specific, documented purposes. This page is the inventory.
These are functional cookies — necessary for the Site and portal to operate. They’re set regardless of your analytics consent because the Site wouldn’t work without them.
session / __Host-session — your authenticated portal session.sb_consent— records your cookie-banner choice so we don’t prompt you again.localStorage entry will remember your selection. Not a cookie, but disclosed here for completeness.We do not currently load Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, or any advertising pixel. When we do (after launch), these cookies may appear, and only if you consent through the banner.
_ga and per-property _ga_* cookies.We do not currently set any advertising or cross-context behavioral advertising cookies, and we do not currently sell or share personal information for advertising purposes. If that ever changes, this page will reflect it and the banner will include an explicit advertising-consent toggle.
On your first visit, the cookie banner asks whether you want to allow analytics cookies. Your choice is stored in the sb_consentcookie. You can change your mind by clearing the cookie in your browser and reloading the page (we’re working on an in-page toggle).
We honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) browser signal as an opt-out from sale, sharing, and targeted advertising. When your browser asserts GPC, the banner is suppressed and analytics consent defaults to denied automatically.
Behind the scenes, we use Google’s Consent Mode v2. The default state on every page load is denied for analytics_storage, ad_storage, ad_user_data, and ad_personalization. We update to granted only when you accept via the banner.
Your browser lets you view, manage, and delete cookies. Here’s where to find those settings:
If you block all cookies, the portal sign-in won’t work. The marketing site will still load.
When the cookie inventory changes (e.g., we add analytics or an embedded video player that drops its own cookies), we’ll update this page and bump the “Last updated” date. The banner will re-prompt if the new category requires fresh consent.
